After the expiration of 30 days from the date on which notice of marriage has been published, the marriage may be solemnized in the Marriage Registrar's Office unless it has been objected by any person then you along with your spouse and three witnesses (anyone) are required to be present on the date of registration/solemnization of your marriage. There are certain documents required to be submitted depending upon each case so for that visit Marriage Registrar Office to know all the required documents needed to the authority in your case. Apart from that you may have to follow more procedures if it is required in your case depending upon your situation.
